Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I'm trying to post a message and I get the following error message:
Your Posting failed due to a newsserver error!
newsserver replied error response: 441
A: Probably the line you typed in was too long.
Most newsserver doesn't accept too long line. In worst case,
some newsserver even only accept lines with max. length
of 80 characters. Please wrap you line with linebreaks.
We don't wrap the lines for you at moment. One of the reasons is some
international language like CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) etc. use
multiple bytes character with variable byte-length. Therefore it's not
that simple to wrap the line correctly for every language.
Q: How long does it take to see my posted article on your site?
A: Most articles usually appear after several minutes on our site.
If you want to see your articles immediately, use the [actualization]
buttom at the right-down edge to refresh the page.
Please remember, posting in a moderated newsgroup can take hours or even days
to get approved by the moderator of the newsgroup.
Q: And how long does it take to see my posted article on other newsservers?
A: It highly depends on the usenet traffic and the performance of the
particular remote newsserver. Sometimes it could take more than one day.
Q: i can't view the images in the articles, instead of this i see only a lot of letters. What have i to do?
A: All binary files are not supported at moment because they are strangling
our current network.
